Abraham is celebrated for his strong faith in God, even when faced with seemingly insurmountable obstacles. He was nearly a hundred years old, and Sarah, his wife, was beyond childbearing age. Despite these facts, Abraham did not allow his faith to waver. Instead, he trusted in God's promise that he would become the father of many nations. This trust was not blind; it was rooted in his understanding of God's character and faithfulness. Abraham's faith journey teaches us that faith does not deny reality but acknowledges it while still believing in God's ability to work miracles. His example encourages believers to maintain their faith even when circumstances seem hopeless, reminding us that God's power is not limited by human constraints. Abraham's story is a testament to the power of faith and the importance of trusting in God's promises, no matter how unlikely they may seem.
Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead—since he was about a hundred years old—and that Sarah’s womb was also dead.
